🎉 We’ve got something to celebrate! 🎉

We’re thrilled to share that, thanks to our collective voices, 6 cities, 17 states — and even the U.S. Senate — officially recognized March 2025 as Blood Clot Awareness Month! This national recognition is a significant step forward in educating the public about the risks, signs, and prevention of blood clots.

A heartfelt thank you to our unstoppable community of advocates who stepped up when we asked them to ‘Do Your Part to Stop the Clot’ in March, making this nationwide recognition possible. Your passion is driving real change and spreading life-saving awareness across the country.

Together, we are a powerful force—each voice, action, and declaration contributing to a future where blood clots are recognized, prevented, and conquered. Our strength lies in unity, and together, we're saving lives.
